This edition has the original cover design and line drawings by the Author. It does not contain the color illustrations. If you want an authentic Hobbit as intended by Tolkein, you want tnis edition, or the larger edition with the green cover which also contains his color illustrations.

In 1966, when I was 13,and hated to read, the librarian invited me into the book room, where we labeled and coded books for the shelves. She said if I would read this book for a half hour a day, I could use the stereo record player in there and bring our own records in. So this was the first fantasy book I ever read...and then I was hooked forever...Lord of the Rings, Robert Heinlein, Arthur Clark, Asimov and Frank Herbert too. I'm 61 and have two grandchildren that I will read to hoping to bring them into the world of unlimited imagination!
I now have a massive library covering Sci-fi, Fantasy, Theology, history and science...all because a librarian conned me into reading "ONE BOOK"! Changed my life. I'm now writing my own book about my experience with the birth of psychedelia and my experiences working for a real underground station in Houston...K.P.F.T./F.M., and playing in early psyche bands. As Bilbo warns us, "When we step out our door, we never know where we will be whisked off to!Also this copy is the exact same hardcover with the runes and maps included! I hope you get the joy it's given me, and pass it on to young people everywhere!Read full review

The Hobbit by J R R Tolkien is a great book and a wonderful story it has very full characters has some humor and it is the first book that may lead to read The Lord of the Rings. The hobbit by it self is a story about Dwarfs goblins elves and a wizard along with a scary Dragon we must not forget Gollum and the ring. This cast of characters you must know that the story is just as good as the characters. so it is a must read.
